Dear Lilly
I cant believe its been twomonths since weve seen each othe. You told me that at times you would forget were you come from. I never thought you would not just call me like you did. I found you in the white pages, along with 20 other Lillys. You make everything so easy once I found you. I knew it was you with the exact address and cute little name you used next to yours. I would be happy if this is all we can do is write each other but you know that I want more. I want you. That day ater the summit, it wasn't just business was it you satyed the night and we had so much fun. Theres a lot about me you don't know my business and affliates, but mostly that one night dosent explain our connection.
I hope to see you again
Love
Fredrick
